Hello everyone,
I've had a question asked of me regarding programing in OS2. In very simple
terms, is it possible to write a program to be run under OS2, or a DOS session
in OS2 such thank the last x number of MB of memory are reserved (protected)
for the application. This protected memory must always be garanteed to belong to the program. The program will only use this memory and none other, also not the
OS or other programs can use this memory. I do not think this is possible since the memory must be managed by OS2, but I may be wrong. I'd love to hear your
replies.
Thanks in advance to all,
BTW - I have not done any OS2 programming (yet), hope to soon.
